What were your hematocrit, RBC, and Hemoglobin values at the end of your blast (last time you checked)?
When did you last donate?

Just looked back at one of his previous labs (pharmacom GH labs) in November. His hematocrit was at 49%, hemoglobin 16.1, and RBC's 5.68. All are borderline values and if he did not donate or hell even if he did I can see how low dose test and Low dose EQ can cause this slight increase in values.I second this, hopefully he knows

From my experience, on TRT test dose alone my hematocrit and hemoglobin has increased about 1% each per month. So, from my perspective his recent numbers would not be a dramatic increase for me.
Don't look how you expected, in regards to what?
@RThoads
When was the last time you took Tamoxifen and arimidex?
Is it possible with a half life of 5-7 days tamoxifen is still in your system (depending on last dose)? I'm guessing with atleast 3 half lives your looking at a max of 21 days. If I can remember correctly you were taking both together or fairly close. Could this have caused both to properly do their jobs and crash your E2?
Additionally, "if" the tamoxifen is just clearing your system and being on such a low dose of testosterone split bi weekly, your body hasn't produced enough estrogen to raise levels.
In the past, when you pinned your 100mg test Watson, did you pin once weekly? If so, higher peaks may produce higher estrogen as E follows T. Thoughts??
I have not used adex since around Aug -- slowly reducing dosages and frequency; I had some Aromasin on hand so I used that for AI during the most of this cruise. Yes, I was also on Tamoxifen at 10mg day at the same time.
I dropped all AI and SERM at the second week of December 2015.
Since that time I have not taken anything at all other than my cruise pins.
I always pin long esters twice weekly and as such my 100mg Watson was split into two 50mg pins on Sun and Weds.
What is really strange to me is that fact that my TT is 450 now but I have no E2.
Forget about if my EQ is Test or if anything is bunk or wrong labels or dosages or I measured wrong etc -- bottom line is whatever I am on is giving me 450 TT; how is it then that without any AI I have crashed E2? that is the main thing that I am not understanding.
I do feel decent.
Also, hey did accept me and I just got back from donating. Hopefully that bring those blood count numbers down a bit.
I agree this is pretty strange. Bottom line 450TT, NO AI in over a month, and crashed E2.
Do you have a labmax on hand? Any chance your EQ is Mast?
Taking low Mast (with its AI properties) yet and still 3X the weekly testosterone dose ... Think that's a possibility?
Wouldn't having mast instead of EQ also explain your high test serum levels for such a low dose of test?
I really wish I had an idea for you.... It's bizarre, but you're right, a few things don't add up.
The hema. Levels are elevated, but much more than I'd guess with that little EQ.
Mind if I ask why you are sure your EQ isn't test?
Just seems unlikely to me that it ISNT test, right? High TT from what else? Obviously it's not natural T as your body is shut down from the exogenous test/EQ/whatever... However, this doesn't explain the hematocrit levels. Unless it's EQ and the test is overdosed (God forbid a UGL would ever do that )You are right guys, I don't know for sure; honestly, I just assumed it must be EQ because if it were test then that would mean I am taking 120mg a week and my TT was lower than when I was using 100mg Cyp.
I will try to LabMax it soon.
Also, I think maybe there could have been an error with my E2. I do not know if that is possible or common, but I will look into getting another test done if my doc will include it with my physical I am supposed to have coming up soon.
If I get a LabMax done I will post it in the lab results section and then link to it here in the log.
Thanks for taking the time to reply, much apprenticed.
Im leaning towards botched e-2 test. With your hematocrit that high you had to have eq in the mix and like wunder says your test could be OD.
I hear you brother, but I've seen an EQ that high after a blast of Npp/low test followed by TRT. No EQ.
Lol , yeah i read it twice cause i was a little confused ( which isnt hard to do) but figured out what you meant.Edit ... I meant to say I've seen a Hematocrit that high after a blast of Npp/low test followed by TRT. No EQ.
